[15:34] <rburton> what Sato used to do, but doesnt appear to right now, is start X with the novt flag so it doesn't switch the active vt on startup
[15:34] <rburton> so when it starts the user still sees the splash or whatever
[15:35] <rburton> then when sato is fully loaded, it fires a dbus signal, and the init script does a chvt
[15:35] <rburton> voila, splash->app without any loading
